Help me give my students protection during the pandemic while making great music!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Shinbo's classroom raised $969

My Students

My students love band and making music and want to continue to make music together even during this pandemic. Many of my older 8th graders always volunteer to tutor the younger students because they care about the future of band!

My Project

With these masks Students will be able to still make music that will change their lives and be safe from the Pandemic while doing so! Also students will be able to wear these masks while they play in any sort of circumstance not only in the band classroom but also should they choose to play for family and friends or in the future!

This repair manual will also help with the finer small repairs for instruments to help alleviate repair costs on instruments so the money can go towards safety of students!
